W Tx Teardrops

         C                      
Well the road maps of West Texas 
       G
never gave me good advice
    G                              
The trains all roll where the roads
                 C
 don't go, now I lay awake at night
     C                             
Just wondering where the rest is so
   G
 I hit that iron gate
      G                            
And I yelled good-bye to that wife 
           F              C
of mine, I may be running late

[Chorus]
              G                 C
I'm a-rolling on, I'm a-rolling on
                  G            
Rolling out past El Paso Texas, 
          C
where I might have had a home
  F               C
I made my bed, so here I lie
G                      F         
I'm rolling West Texas teardrops 
      C
in my eye

[Verse]
         C                         
Though I felt a lonesome feeling in
 G
 Dulce, New Mexico
      G                            
I was happier than I'd ever been in
 C
 my El Paso home
      C                            
But I thought about the woman whom 
  G
I left to roam the land
      G                         
And I cried so much it dug a rut 
      F            C
they call the Rio Grande

[Chorus]
              G                 C
I'm a-rolling on, I'm a-rolling on
                 G             
Rolling out past El Paso Texas, 
         C
where I might have had a home
  F               C
I made my bed, so here I lie
G                      F         
I'm rolling West Texas teardrops 
      C
in my eye

[Solo]
F F C C
F F C G

[Bridge]
       G                           
And my destination is written upon 
   C
my feet
        G                        
And the stars above are about the 
      C
only company I keep
   C                 F
So raise my pass and take my seat
G                       F        
I'm rolling fast with a teardrop 
      G
on my cheek

[Verse]
     C                             
So I guess there'll be no family, 
    G
so I guess there'll be no wife
      G                        
Gonna roll away on an old steel 
            C
dray, it's gonna be my life
        C                          
And the road maps I been reading, I
       G
 never came to figure out
G                            F   
All I know is I'd explode by any 
      C
other route

[Chorus]
              G                 C
I'm a-rolling on, I'm a-rolling on
                 G             
Rolling out past El Paso Texas, 
         C
where I might have had a home
  F               C
I made my bed, so here I lie
G                      F         
I'm rolling West Texas teardrops 
      C
in my eye


              G                 C
I'm a-rolling on, I'm a-rolling on
                 G             
Rolling out past El Paso Texas, 
         C
where I might have had a home
  F               C
I made my bed, so here I lie
G                      F         
I'm rolling West Texas teardrops 
      C
in my eye
    G                      F      
And I'm rolling West Texas 
         C
teardrops in my eye
    G                      F      
And I'm rolling West Texas 
         C
teardrops in my eye
